To Live Another Day, Another Way
Just as the newly outposted bastion was nearly fortified and stabilized, we continued our unified effort to kick the asses of Calamity Objects for another hour.
"Looks like their way of using pikes has gotten significantly better," I muttered to myself.
Was this the effort of Amelia's constant guidance and second-in-command to others beside Verina while I'm gone?
Just as I thought that I could finally rest my fatigued body until the sunrise, my ears caught something.
Verina watched the interaction of her crew and me with her usual stoic expression, though I could sense she was still meticulously processing all of this.
"Kuzunoha," she began, "Despite everything that I hear and perceive, my gut feeling still convinces me that you really failed to mention someone of character like Lambda right after Narcissus' action to settle vague and non-lingering things."
Ah, it seemed like tricking Verina's guts feeling was proven harder than we thought.
